Abstract |
A cooperative demonstration project was funded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to enable the Village of Cayuga, N.Y. to install and demonstrate water filtration technology that may be appropriate for small water systems that use surface water sources. A prefabricated filtration system consisting of two cyclone separators in parallel followed by three parallel treatment trains, each employing a contact clarifier, a mixed media filter, and a granular activated carbon filter was installed at Cayuga's existing water treatment plant. The new equipment replaced facilities built in the 1930's. After installation, careful records of the first year's operation were kept to document water quality, operating labor needs, and operating costs, including power and chemicals. |
